Persib Bandung midfielder Luciano Guaycochea has stated that his team is ready to face the match against PSIM Yogyakarta in the continuation of the BRI Super League 2025/26 on Sunday afternoon.
He is optimistic that the team can bounce back after suffering a defeat in the previous match.
“As the coach said, our preparations have been going well. We have been training with focus throughout the week. We know we lost the last match, but we are Persib. We are a team that is always required to play well and we hope to achieve a positive result,” he said.
He also highlighted the intense competition in the league this season.
He is aware that Persib’s status as back-to-back champions makes every opponent more determined when facing them.
“Regarding the league, every match feels difficult for all teams. After Persib became champions two years in a row, every opponent wants to defeat us. They play three hundred percent when facing Persib,” he stated.
Nevertheless, the Argentine midfielder believes his team can continue to compete at the top.
For him, the most important thing right now is to focus on the match against PSIM Yogyakarta and bring home a victory.
“We certainly have to push ourselves even harder. My hope is that in the upcoming match we can win, because that is what matters most,” said Guaycochea.
With high fighting spirit, the team is believed to remain solid despite facing great pressure from opponents and the expectations of their loyal supporters, the Bobotoh.
